Decadent Magic Bar Brownies

Happy Holidays, Everyone!!
Hope you made it home from college safely and are enjoying the festivities without getting to caught up in the aftermath of shopping and stressors of gift returns.


Try baking this simple, but decadent, version of brownies and create some magic by sharing them with a neighbor, your family, or old friends while shooting the breeze rather than getting road rage at the mall. 

College-level cooking and mixing. Delicious way to raise the bar on the common ol' brownie.
Great for the upcoming New Year's Eve celebrations. Make a batch today!

(Adapted for college baking from Real Simple by using Ghiradelli Double Chocolate Brownie mix rather than making from scratch)
